APIC-EM System Requirements - 64GB RAM

I read that 64GB RAM was the minimum requirement to run APIC-EM in a VM. I figured that was for a production system and I could get away with much less in a lab.

Does anyone have any experience running it on 32GB RAM? That is the max my motherboard will support. I currently have 16GB and that was just a brutal disk thrashing experience upon booting up - which, of course, I stopped trying after 10 minutes.

I don't want to upgrade to 32GB unless I know I at least have a chance of running it.

Thoughts?

Regards,

I have it installed in my lab of very few devices (i.e., 4) with 40 GB of RAM.  It will not work with less RAM.

Thanks! So, I guess my next build will be with a motherboard that supports 64GB RAM.
